Background technique
Vehicle internal combustion engine typically comprises front end band and drives accessory drive system.This annex can comprise power steering gear, alternator, water pump etc.Because belt is always along the circuitous path of the frontal plane around motor, therefore accessory drive system also can be called snakelike drive unit.
Typical snakelike drive system comprises the drive pulley on the bent axle of the internal-combustion engine of vehicle, for a series of driven pulleies of described annex, with around driving and many V-types band of driven pulley.The advantage of snakelike drive unit is, by providing automatic belt stretcher on belt, and can installation accessories regularly.
Especially, when motor is four cylinder type, drive pulley is height of formation dynamic load on belt.This high dynamic load is the variable torque output characteristics due to bent axle.Belt tightener can not regulate all variable torque characteristics.The possibility of result is the belt life of noise due to instantaneous belt slippage and reduction.
The representative of this technology is U. S. Patent 5,139,463, a kind of serpentine belt drive system for automobile of this U.S. Patent Publication, wherein the sequence of driven subassembly comprises alternator assembly, this alternator assembly comprises shell and armature assembly, and this armature assembly is arranged in shell to rotate around armature axis.Hub structure is carried by armature assembly to rotate together with armature assembly around armature axis in housing exterior.Helical spring to be arranged between alternator pulley and hub structure with operative relationship in case by serpentine band by the driven rotary motion transmission of alternator pulley to hub structure, armature assembly and alternator pulley are rotated along equidirectional, instantaneous relative resilient rotary motion can be carried out in opposite direction relative to alternator pulley simultaneously during its driven rotary motion.
It is desirable that a kind of isolator, this isolator has torsion spring and retainer, and this torsion spring applies axial contraction force to remain on axle by belt pulley, and this stop arrangement is outside at torsion spring.The present invention addresses that need.
Summary of the invention
Main aspect of the present invention is a kind of isolator, and this isolator has torsion spring and retainer, and this torsion spring applies axial contraction force to remain on axle by belt pulley, and this stop arrangement is outside at torsion spring.
Other side of the present invention will be pointed out by the following description of the present invention and accompanying drawing or illustrate.
The present invention includes a kind of isolator, this isolator comprises: axle (10); Belt pulley (20), described belt pulley is installed to described axle at the first lining (40) and the upper axle journal of the second lining (50); The torsion spring (30) engaged with described axle and described belt pulley, described torsion spring applies axial contraction force to be kept on the shaft by described belt pulley; Be fixed to the lid component (60) of described axle, described belt pulley is promoted by described torsion spring axial contraction force thus engages with described lid component, described lid component also comprises axial protruding member (62), and described axial protruding member is arranged in the radially outer of described torsion spring; Described belt pulley comprises the periphery pit (24) for receiving described protruding member collaboratively and has the retainer (23) be arranged in described periphery pit; With rubber component (80), described rubber component is disposed to engage described protruding member together with described retainer.

Embodiment
Fig. 1 is the sectional view of isolator of the present invention.Isolator 100 comprises axle 10 and belt pulley 20.Belt pulley 20 axle journal on lining 40 and lining 50 is installed to axle 10.Belt pulley 20 is connected to axle 10 by torsion spring 30.
Torsion spring 30 is the extended position springs in the state not having load with minimal coil spacing.In the state not having load, Coil spacing can be any value between 0mm to 0.5mm.At assembly process, torsion spring to be forced in belt pulley 20 and to be forced in axle 10.After this, at assembly process, axle and belt pulley are opened about 2 to 3mm, and torsion spring is elongated to and wishes that length is to realize the expection axial contraction force of about 20-50N thus.Contraction spring rigidity can in 5 scopes to 20N/mm.Axial contraction force is parallel to and works along spin axis A-A.
The end 11 that lid 60 is forced into axle 10 is fixed by swaged forging (swaging) or other known method.Lining 50 is press fit in belt pulley 20.Sleeve surface 52 and end 11 slip joint.Lid 60 docks with the flange 51 of lining 50.Flange 51 is loaded by the contractile force of torsion spring 30.Lid 60 forms labyrinth sealing by the flange 21 of lid antelabium 61 and belt pulley 20 and flange 22, and the inner member of protective separation device is from pollution.
For driving or operation period of slave operation state, rubber component 80 is for cushioning the shock of protruding member 62 and belt pulley 20.Axle 10 is threaded onto on alternative electric generation arbor (not shown).
Fig. 2 is the perspective top view of isolator of the present invention.Cover 60 by swaged forging to shaft end 11.Lid antelabium 61 gives prominence to (not shown) between flange 21 and flange 22.Belt pulley 20 is shown as has many ribs surface 25.Surface 25 engages multi-ribbed belt (not shown).
Fig. 3 is the perspective bottom view of isolator of the present invention.Lining 40 is bonded between belt pulley 20 and axle 10.
Fig. 4 is the partial sectional view of isolator of the present invention.Lining 50 is bonded between end 11 and belt pulley 20.Flange 51 is loaded by the contractile force of torsion spring 30 thus is crimped conjunction with lid 60.In fact, belt pulley and axle keep together as assembly by torsion spring 30, make belt pulley 20 be bearing on lid 60, and lining 50 is arranged between belt pulley 20 and lid 60.Lining 40 is connected to belt hub 26 by other appropriate method known in tackiness agent, press fit or this field.
Fig. 5 is the side view of isolator of the present invention.
Fig. 6 is the cross section at the 6-6 place of Fig. 5.Protruding member 62 is given prominence to vertically and is arranged on the outward edge of lid 60.Lid 60 by swaged forging to axle 10 as anti-rotational feature.Retainer 23 for belt pulley 20 is arranged in belt pulley pit 24, and this belt pulley pit is formed between flange 21,22 and between retainer 23.Protruding member 62 is projected in each periphery belt pulley pit 24.Each protruding member 62 is arranged in the radially outer of torsion spring.Rubber component 80 is arranged on every side of retainer 23.During load reversal, in the either end of stroke range, each protruding member 62 clashes into each rubber component 80 and therefore clashes into each retainer 23.Rubber component 80 makes this shock soften and reduces otherwise the noise will produced by this shock.
In alternative embodiments, each retainer 23 can comprise the compressible of such as rubber or elastomeric material, and each retainer 23 and adjacent rubber component 80 are combined to be formed the parts of single compressible, elastomeric or rubber thus.
Belt pulley rotating distance is unequal between the winding and uncoiling direction of torsion spring.Along coiling direction 35, belt pulley rotating distance is between 40 to 50 degree.Along uncoiling direction 51, belt pulley stroke is certain value between 20 to 30 degree.
Although described form of the present invention here, will be obvious that for a person skilled in the art, change can have been made and do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention described herein in the structure of parts and relation.
